In Washington DC, Thievery Corporation has opened a small army of hip restaurants/bars. At Marvin, (www.marvindc.com) the music playlist is about half Thievery Music.

They also have the 18th Street Lounge, The Gibson, Patty Boom Boom and more.

It all started with ESL (18th Street Lounge), where they created a studio in the back rooms and started the ESL Music Label. To this day that is still one of the most popular bars in the city...after 18 years :)
